Divorce is the termination of your marriage. It is separate to any arrangements about your children or property/finances.
For a Divorce to be granted, there must have been an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage and the parties must have been separated for at least 12 months immediately prior to the Divorce Application being made.
No. In Australia, divorce is on a “no fault” basis. You only need to satisfy the three (3) criteria listed above.
You do not have to wait until you are divorced to ask the Court for orders about your children, your property or spouse maintenance. However, once you are divorced you have 12 months from the date your divorce order becomes final to file an application for property settlement or spouse maintenance. This timeframe can be waived by the Court only in certain circumstances.
